The Citizenship Law of Moldova (No. 1024-XIV), enacted by the Moldovan government in June 2000, along with the amended Regulations on the Moldova Citizenship by Investment Program issued in 2018, stipulates that by making a contribution to the Public Investment Fund starting from as little as €100,000, you and your family (up to three generations) can quickly obtain a Moldovan passport. This passport provides visa-free access to 121 countries and regions worldwide, including Schengen Area countries and Russia, acting as a golden key to opening doors to Europe and the world.


Moldova is strategically positioned between the European Union and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). It is one of the few European nations that is simultaneously an EU Association Agreement signatory, a UN member state, a member of the WorldWay Organization (WTO), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), and the CIS. Moldova actively develops relations with the US and Europe, prioritizing European integration and joining the EU as key diplomatic objectives, with the accession process already underway. Current trade agreements include the CIS Free Trade Agreement, the Stability Pact for South Eastern Europe, Generalised Scheme of Preferences (GSP) with the EU, Autonomous Trade Preferences (ATP) with the EU, the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA) with the EU, and the Moldova-Turkey Free Trade Agreement, all of which provide preferential trade treatment within Southeastern Europe and CIS nations.


Furthermore, Moldova is a rare tax-friendly country with no taxes on foreign-sourced income, no inheritance tax, and no gift tax. The corporate income tax rate is only 12%, and investments made in Free Trade Zones and free ports may qualify for even more favorable tax policies. This environment is highly conducive to business operations, tax planning, and wealth succession. Holding a Moldovan passport will assist you in optimizing your overseas asset allocation and seizing the golden decade of European investment opportunities.
